The current trend in research on AOPs with nanotechnology for the
Water treatment is gaining much momentum globally. The properties
unique of these and their effects together with POPs present great advantages and
opportunities to open a new gap in the water treatment sector through
higher level, even though they are still in the laboratory or pilot plant phase. In
the cases in which AOPs with nanomaterials are combined to form a system
hybrid, the drawbacks of individual technologies are eliminated, achieving the
maximum efficiency with minimum energy input.
On the other hand, there are good future prospects for processes assisted with
commercial scale ultrasound and pilot plant, as it could increase production
of hydroxyl radicals.
In addition, a very important parameter to take into account for further investigation
is the increase in the amount of hydroxyl radicals produced, since these are the ones
They carry out the decontamination of the waters.
It has also been found that, in photochemical technologies, the latest trends
mark the step towards modifying the radiation source, being a new advance
the switch to LED lamps or even photovoltaic panels coupled for supply
of energy.
